Shitification Level

4 / 5

Repeated price hikes, password-sharing crackdown, and an ad-supported tier that quietly became the default for new sign-ups.

Notably declining since 2022.

Evidence

Standard plan price increased multiple times since 2022; password-sharing fees introduced 2023; 4K paywalled behind highest tier.

Alternatives that haven't (yet) followed the same trajectory.
